Faded High

Gayngs

I keep my wings strapped back
I keep my heart in a jar
You ain’t ready for me
You say you’ll keep your catch,
Your fingers crossed in the dark
You’re all just touch and go
Don’t wanna be
Your traps they close too slow
I want your body on me.
You can’t have me
None of your shit from the bar
Nobody wants that package please
that adage still rings true
Take a look, take a good long look,
by the book, is the hook that I just gone took
You’re breaking every rule I made,
I only play by the book
Yah, I only play by the book
You won’t be ready
You ain’t ready for me
How could I ever want to leave you behind?
Stay with me
Love me, Love me, Love me, Love me, Love me
I need, I need, I need, I need your love
Don't be the rich one, see all the warnings, son
the rule is feel, the morning comes
see giant clocks and mercury
pouring from their eyes
give back both your times—trust it.
occupied love falls between the lines
faded high
Love me, Love me, Love me, Love me, Love me
I need, I need, I need, I need your love
Faded is this high

    Rather than 'How could I ever leave you behind?' I think it's 'How could I ever want to leave you behind?'

    THANK YOU though, for typing up the lyrics. Man, I love this song :)

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
